My World Series prediction: David Ortiz will pass out in Game 3

I mentioned this in the comments of this AOL Fanhouse post on Tuesday, but I will reiterate the point here... how the hell is David Ortiz going to run the bases in Denver, Colorado?

There was a situation early in the playoffs where David Ortiz was on second, and the batter kept fouling off pitches with two strikes, and Papi was literally sucking wind while returning to the bag just to do the whole running thing all over again.

That was either in Boston, Cleveland or Anaheim. Where oxygen is plentiful.

Just wait until this series goes to Colorado... I'm just saying if at any point, Papi jumps up and down and yells, "IS THAT ENOUGH FOR YOU, TITO???" well, you know what's coming.

Here's the image reference for the kids (which was hard as hell to find). It's 1:30 into the video, dummy.

Red Sox fans are actively trying to make me puke

Yesterday, Red Sox Nation did its damnedest to revolt me in every way possible, capped off by reader Marty's interpretation of this Red Sox fan photo that I had somehow missed on Deadspin.

(I could swear that I've seen this guy before... oh wait, I know.)

This was preceded by Bill Simmons' photo gallery of his field trip to Tropicana Field in St. Pete, which not only included easy jokes about how all Devil Rays fans are older than sin, but also this unfortunate picture of Simmons' leg hair. Now, I'm a huge fan of The Sports Guy's work, but I have to say Bill's been mailing it in this summer harder than Spiderman 3.

But the worst thing I saw yesterday was provided to me by an unnamed reader (from the e-mail address, I'm going to guess Julie). I hate to say it, but any time someone sends me a LOLjock, and the first thing I say is "Ewwwwwwwwwgh," I'm probably going to post it.
